We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Tropical storm Michael has grown into a Category 3 hurricane and is expected to make landfall on the Florida Panhandle on Wednesday, October 10, 2018.  Forecasters expect Michael to continue to strengthen, to at least a Category 3 storm, before making landfall.

    Airlines are issuing travel waivers for affected areas.  Also if your trip is delayed or interrupted, certain credit cards have built-in travel insurance benefits and may cover you!

    If You’ve Got Travel Planned to the Southeastern US This Week, Now’s the Time to Change Your Flights!

    It isn’t often that hurricanes make landfall in this part of Florida.  The last one occurred 13 years ago, and experts are predicting severe damage from the storm surge, wind, and flooding.

    Parts of the Southeast will also have strong winds and heavy rain as Michael moves inland.  But the hurricane is expected to move quickly into the Atlantic Ocean and so the flooding shouldn’t be as bad as it was with hurricane Florence.

    Travel waivers are being issued by the following airlines:
